Richard Thompson

Its Just The Motion

When you're rocked on the ocean
Rocked up and down don't worry
When you're spinning and turning
Round and round don't worry
You're just feeling seasick
You're just feeling weak
Your mind is confused
And you can't seem to speak
It's just the motion
A Esus E (use D form on 4th fret)
It's just the motion
When the landlord is knocking
And your job is losing don't worry
When the baby needs rocking
And your friends are confusing don't worry
You're just feeling seasick
You're just feeling weak
Your mind is confised
And you can't seem to speak
It's just the motion
Blown by a hundred winds
Knocked down a hundred times
Rescued and carried along
Beaten and half-dead and gone
And it's only the pain that's keeping you sane
And gives you the mind to travel on
Oh the motion won't leave you
Won't let you remain Don't worry
It's a restless wind
And a sleepless rain, Don't worry
Under the ocean
At the bottom of the sea
You can't hear the storm
It's as peaceful as can be
It's just the motion
(guitar solo)
